Sergio Ramos has said he’s “going to die” for Paris Saint-Germain when they face Real Madrid in the Champions League last-16.
The Spanish centre-back was asked about his emotions upon drawing his former club in Europe, and he left no doubts about his allegiance.
Ramos has only managed to play in one match this year for PSG amid prolonged muscular injuries, but he will hope to be available in the spring for the momentous two-legged clash.
Ramos almost played Manchester United instead of Real Madrid, but PSG were re-drawn against the Spanish side in an emotional turn of events for him.
“You know the affection and love I have for Real Madrid,” Ramos said.
“Now it’s my turn to defend PSG and I’ll do everything possible to do it. It’s the team that bet on me. I’m going to die for PSG.”
“I would have liked not to have that confrontation (with Real Madrid), but returning to the Santiago Bernabeu is cause for joy (because) I could not have a real farewell because of Covid restrictions.”
Ramos also revealed that he experienced “many hours of darkness and loneliness” at the start of his time at Paris Saint-Germain as a calf injury prevented him from appearing in a match until November 28. He’s since been sidelined again with muscular problems with his status moving forwards uncertain.
